The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 722

Sylvia's POV:

That evening, Rufus actually took me to the mourning hall where Leonard's body had been placed. Alina was not there.

I didn't know how Rufus had made her leave, and I didn't care about it anymore. I was just happy she wasn't here to disgust me again.

"I'll be outside. Call me if you need anything."

Rufus considerately gave me some time alone and left to guard the door.

After the door shut, I slowly made my way to the bed where the corpse was placed.

The cosmetician had already fixed Leonard's face and body. Except for the pale blue hue of his skin, he looked the same as before.

I stared at his body, my mind going blank.

I'd thought I would be a crying mess, but it seemed that I had already shed all my tears before.

At this moment, I felt a faint burning sensation on my chest. It was because of the pendant I'd worn before leaving the hospital.

The pink pendant got progressively hotter until it turned a deep rose-red color.

I knew that when I put some distance between Leonard and me, the pendant would become light pink again.

Originally, I had only intended to keep the pendant and look at it when I missed him. But I hadn't expected it to work even after he was gone.

Tears streamed down my face again. I felt an overwhelming sadness as I thought about what had happened between Leonard and me.

If I had only know earlier that he was my father.

Then I would have spent more time with him.
